SUMMARY:Profiling Dynamic Web Applications with Firebug
DESCRIPTION:Presented by John J. Barton (IBM). Firebug is well known as 
 a powerful, easy-to-use web-site inspector. Less well known are its perf
 ormance analysis abilities. In addition to straightforward JavaScript co
 de on web pages, some sites use dynamically loaded JavaScript or use Jav
 aScript to interpret AJAX JSON strings.

 , Inc. ), Brian Moon (dealnews.com), Don MacAskill (SmugMug), John Allsp
 aw (Flickr (Yahoo!)), Michael Halligan (DatacenterJunkie), Frank Mashraq

 pens when you get TechCrunched, Dugg, Slashdotted, and even "Oprahed"...
  all at once.  The focus will be on what the traffic looks like, how you
  can do to prepare in advance, and what to do when it happens.

  discusses the next set of best practices he's discovered, including the
  best ways to load JavaScript and where to place (and where not to place
 ) inline scripts.

SUMMARY:Doloto: Speeding Up  Web 2.0 Apps with Dynamic Code Loading
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Ben Livshits (Microsoft). Modern Web 2.0 applic
 ations, such as GMail, Live Maps, Facebook, and many others, use Ajax to
  push page generation and content manipulation to the client web browser
 . This improves the responsiveness of these network-bound applications. 
 We present Doloto, a system that analyzes application workloads and auto
 matically performs code splitting of existing large Web 2.0 applications
 .

SUMMARY:Shared Dictionary Compression Over HTTP
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Wei-Hsin  Lee (Google, Inc. ). Shared Dictionar
 y Compression over HTTP protocol (SDCH) aims at reducing data redundancy
  across HTTP responses. The protocol is meant to work with current schem
 es (gzip, deflate) to further compress the HTTP responses. This protocol
  is different from original proposed rfc3229 (differential compression),
  as it does not require the browser to cache the last version of pages.
